    There was 'Music' created in 2011! *covers ears and la las loudly as she attempts to purchase things from the On The Run (24 hour convenience store that plays all the "latest and greatest" auto-tuned dance hits)*

    I guess Devin Townsend released something ok, even that wasn't his best effort though.

    Don't really follow individual songs. I'm more of an album guy. But I'd say Fair to Midland's new one "Arrows and Anchors" is the album I've been listening to the most. The new Anthrax is killer too.
